Changing the authentication method for a user

Note: For Oracle-hosted installations, you change a user's authentication method to SSO by creating the user in the Oracle Health Sciences Identity and Access Management Services console. Do not perform this procedure.

You can change the authentication method for a user to Local, SSO (single sign-on), or LDAP.

Before you begin:

If you plan to change a user's authentication method to SSO and you work in a self-hosted environment, create the user in your single sign-on application.
If you plan to change a user's authentication method to LDAP, import the user.

1. Click Settings.

The Settings page appears.

2. In the Manage Users section, click Edit Users.

The Users page appears.

3. In the table, locate the user.

4. Click the row menu () for the user, and then click Edit.

The Edit User page appears.

5. In the Authentication drop-down list, select one of the following:

Local
SSO
LDAP

The user's user name and details are updated throughout the application.

6. Click Save.
